My aircon has been deteriating; had a guy look today £15 to find a leak on the condenser.
Best I can find is about £100 for a new condenser, he wants £30 to fit it then it will be £50 to regas it.
Seems about as good as I'll get to me, does anybody know any better?

OK I have the new cooler and it's going in on Wednesday.
Looking at the manual the Intercooler has to come out to change it; does anybody have any tips on the best thing to clean the intercooler while its out?

Inside, petrol and let it soak. Outside soak it in soapy water then a steady stream of weater, not a jet wash.

Thanks; done it today, more or less what I did but Paraffin and washed that out with Gunk.
Job done, AC back and working, the nice thing was that all the other coolers looked good.
-
Yes of course, parafin doesn't have any road fuel duty.

The joke is that really petrol would have been cheaper!
I could not source pumped parafin so had to get a gallon prepackaged, that was more than a gallon of petrol!
I thought about red diesel but wanted something a little lighter.
Anyway it's all done, a lot of gunk came out but it's hard to tell if it has any more boot really.
